I am from R.V.College of Engineering. we too use one of the distributions
of GNU /Linux to do most ( 70% - 80 %) of the computer science and
engineering steams ( BE CSE , ISE, MTech  MCA ) and also in many other
branches many of the labs are slowly migrating to Free Softwares like
scilab , orcad, etc

This year we have even doing .net lab using free .net platforms available
on GNU /Linux

Yes there were several challenges faced few years back while working /
migrating , but since now it has become a day to day computing we are
really not so much worried

We are also helping many other surrounding colleges , many of the colleges
are doing their labs on GNU /Linux in and around bangalore , atleast i have
seen more than 15 colleges doing this.

Nice to hear from you --- if you need any help please post your queries on
this list , one or the other will help you
